session enacted law which permits
counties TO impose license fee from
$500 to $1,000 upon retail liquor dealers.
The suppositlon is that this law applies
to every county and city, though the
difficulty of obtaining information upon
this point IN advance of the publication
of the laws prevents a positive state

The Stomach Distils Acids.

These, il existent in natural quantity, and
unvitiated by bile, play their part in the
functions of digestion and assimilation. But
the artificial acid resulting from the inability
of the stomach to convert food received by it
into substenance, is the producer of fiatulence
and heartburn, which are the most harrassing
symptoms of dyspepsia. The best carminative
is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. Far more
effective is it than carbonate of soda. mag
nesia or other alkaline salts. These invariably
weaken the stomach without producing per-
manent benefit. No man or woman chron-
ically dyspeptic, and consequently nervous,
can be in possession of the full measure of
viaor allowed by nature. Therefore, invigor-

False Alarm,

More prominence has been given
to on event that occurred on the
Coeur d'Alene reservation, in which
a stage driver paid an Indian SO for
the privilege OF carrying passengers
to Pennington landing than the facts
bear out. All manner of exaggerated
reports have been in circulation and
excitement ran so high that at one
time 1t was considered advisable to
raid the reservation and shoot down
the Indians wherever met. The
peaceful and Industrious condition
of the Occur d'Alene tribe Is so well
known that 1t is strange that the
first reports received so much atten-
tion. 1t Is true that a stage driver
paid an Indian Sc demai.ded, but the
demand was not made with any
threat or show of intimidation. 1t
seems that an Indian last summer
started a stage line to Pennington
landing on the lake but gave 1t up.
Recently this Indian saw white
man driving a stage load
of travellers to the landing, and
believing that a stage line was
required to secure the right of way
across the the reservation the same
, 1887-06-16

as a railroad, concluded that he had
the power to stop the stage, especial
~ as he had one Of his own. The
Indian met the stage containing the
travellers, and told the driver that he
(the Indian) would take them on to
the landing. The driver asked how
much he wanted for allowing the
stage TO go through and the Indian
said 50 each. The driver paid the
So. The Indian had no gun or pis-
tol, so the charge that the stage was
stopped by armed Indians was en-
tirely erroneous. When Chief Sal
tese heard Of 1t he refunded the
money. Ample experience has
proven that the Occur dAlenes are
the most honest, industrious and
peaceful Indians In the United
States, and they will never be found
the aggressors against the white set
tiers of this country.

II seems strange that business men
In almost any community can
be so easily induced to invest in
almost any snido advertising scheme
outside of their local papers. 1t is Il
dlscouraging fact thut strangers can
come into place and drum up
several hundred dollars worth of
show card advertising, in many
instances from men who never
patronize legitimate advertising
medium. 1t is n commentary upon
the lack Of forethought on the part
of business man who thus con-
tributes something for nothing.
There has never been an advertising
scheme invented that can take the
place Of the local paper. This state
ment can be verified by the very
men who permit themselves to be
talked into the show card advertis.
ing method. No matter how at.
tractive u framed advertisement
in public place may be it never
catches the eyes of a man twice.
No matter how ingenious may be
the mechanism connected with
these public card exhibitions, the
pedestrian notices it but once, and
that Is the end of IL. His attention
Is never drawn in that direction
again. He or she understands that
1t Is only for advertising purposes,
and that knowledge is sufficient to
put an end to all interest In the SUBJ
ject. On the other hand II card in a
daily paper stares hundreds Of read
ers in the face twenty-six days In a
month. He cannot open the paper
without seeing it, until at last its
absence would surprise him. That
is wise and profitable advertising.
This dissertation on advertising Is
called forth from the fact that a
party is now engaged in working the
town for "space" in card sign.
The absurdity of this class of display
cards can be seen, dust-covered,
dingy and uninteresting, all over
the city. They are monuments to
the folly of the spasmodic efforts of
tradesmen to reach out for public
patronage. The system Is blow at
the local paper, and robs 1t of its
rightful patronage. Let business
men who desire to invest money In
advertising--advertising from which
they can hope to derive some bene-
ft-put the sum paid out to this
placard system in their home papers.
They will not only reap the fruits of
the investment, but every dollar so
invested is kept and spent at home,
and furthermore assists and encour-
ages the publisher in his unrequited
labors in building up the town and
country from which the community
at large derives fer more benefit
than the newspaper man.

Yesterday afternoon the directors
of the Washington and Idaho Fair
association held a meeting and ac-

member of the board and further
that the job is one OF the best OF
the kind ever done in the northwest.

nently fitting in this case, for the
